what to put in a 130 gal!

But I think it would make a fantastic coffee table/ray tank. Imagine how chic that would be? Haha.

definately rays, perfect size for it, Big Al's in Montreal had some about a month ago for 69$, they get regular shipment.

...and then the money you spend on gas and the risk of transporting a ray that distance.

How do you think they get to the pet store?? they survive the plane, the time in the bag, they can surely spend an hour and a half in a big enough container, if everything has to be done entirely on gas price, I think we are in for a very sad life...but again it also depends on how bad you want the fish!

[Mettle]

I was just saying for the price of gas to get to and from Montreal and the trouble you'd go through, for probably a few bucks more, you could get rays in Ottawa.

Plus I'm always weary of the quality of the fish if they're that cheap... (I guess it depends on the type though.)

[mseguin]

Actaully I dinf that some of the cheaper (wild) fish are often hgiher quality. I think its because they've been handled less. Less middlemen = less handling and trasnport = lower cost and healthier fish. I've seen some great wild fish from South America that were sold dirt cheap.

how about banded shark and blue spot stingray? prolly some eels too!

still waiting for Rona to get me some sand
